Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst Directs Humorous New eHarmony Commercial
Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst has stepped behind the camera to direct a series of new eHarmony commercials. See the first one here.
Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst has stepped behind the camera to direct a series of new eHarmony commercials. See the first one here.
Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst is both in front of and behind the camera for a new mockumentary short film titled 'The Truth.'
Fred Durst has been known as a man of many talents. From fronting Limp Bizkit to his acting roles and now for his directing skills.
In addition to his career as a musician, Fred Durst has also ventured into TV projects over the past few years. Now, according to TV Guide, the Limp Bizkit frontman will develop a one-hour TV drama called 'The Noise' for The CW. The show will be based on his real-life experiences.
In what might be the most terrifying Halloween news of all, it seems '90s rap rock stalwart Limp Bizkit may have risen from the grave to attack The CW. Forgotten frontman Fred Durst has entered development with the network to craft a new drama approximating the origins of the "Nookie" band in 'The Noise,' but should we have any faith it will keep rollin'?
Throughout musical history there have been duets/collaborations that never should have ever entered anyone's mind. Yet, they did and they happened - Unfortunately for those of us who had to torture our ears with it.
Usually a collaboration is done to help a particular singer, songwriter, or band.
Why did this one happen? We may never know the answer.
As Limp Bizkit prepare to release their new disc 'Stampede of the Disco Elephants' on Cash Money Records, the band recently shared their new video for the first single 'Ready to Go,' featuring rapper and label mate Lil Wayne.
Limp Bizkit's next stage of their career has had a few stops and starts, and things are ready to start up again next month. Singer Fred Durst revealed via Twitter that things are coming along with the wealth of material that may end up being one or potentially two records. Plus, there's a new single and video for a track called 'Pain' that may be arriving soon.
Fred Durst isn't just dipping his toes in the Cash Money pool, he's doing a full on swan dive right in. The Limp Bizkit singer has lent his skills to a new single called 'Champions' by Kevin Rudolf, a pop star on the Cash Money label.
Limp Bizkit have done plenty of touring in recent years, but it's been noticeable that the group haven't played very much in the United States. Singer Fred Durst tells Kerrang! that a good reason for that was the band realizing that American audiences had moved on.
Limp Bizkit singer Fred Durst loves his fans, but up to a certain point. During a show in Moscow on Tuesday night (June 5), the wrath of Durst was witnessed by an audience of thousands.
Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland is speaking up about the recent news that DJ Lethal and drummer John Otto are on their way out — saying that nothing is final as of yet and asking fans to take it easy on Fred Durst over the messy situation.

Security Breach Compromises Oklahoma Customer Info
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner John Doak says a security breach at an Ohio-based insurer has compromised the personal information of 534 Oklahomans.
Doak says the computer network used by Nationwide Insurance Company of Columbus, Ohio, and Allied Insurance was attacked on October 3rd. He says the FBI is investigating.
An initial analysis indicates the compromised information includes names and some combination of customers' Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, birth dates and possibly their marital statuses, genders and occupations.
Nationwide is notifying customers whose personal information may have been compromised. Doak says there is no evidence any personal information has been misused. But Nationwide is arranging free credit report monitoring and identity theft protection for affected customers for one year.

Massimo Baldwin
Comment on this storyAlec Baldwin wants to call his baby Massimo.
The 54-year-old actor's wife Hilaria is expecting the couple's first child later this year and although they don't know what gender the baby will be, Alec – who already has 17-year-old daughter Ireland from his first marriage – has chosen the perfect name if it is a boy.
Speaking on the 'Rachael Ray Show', Hilaria said: "[Alec] had the idea for Massimo the other day. It's a lovely name, I just don't know. That's a very big name for a very little baby.
"We have a different idea almost every single day. I think you actually have to look at it once it pops out and say, 'Who are you? What is your name?'"
While the couple weren't planning on having a baby so soon after their June 2012 wedding, they cannot wait to welcome the latest addition to their family.
Hilaria,28 – who found out she was expecting at Christmas - added: "It was something that we both wanted - I don't want to say it was a surprise and we didn't want it - we were very excited when we found out.
"But we just got married in June … so it was a really nice Christmas present."
"At this point, before the baby is born, Alec thinks he's going to be Mr. Mom. We'll see if at three o'clock in the morning when the baby is screaming and we need to change the diaper if he's going to be Mr. Mom at that point."

Between 1862 and 1870, over 10,000 adventurous people travelled the Cariboo Waggon Road, and towns sprang up in their wake, from Lillooet in the south to the goldfields of Barkerville in the North.
The gush for Cariboo gold soon declined, but not the trek of discovery into the rugged wilderness of the Cariboo. People from all over the world still venture here, following the footsteps of the expeditions that went before them. It is still a land of golden dreams with summer images of golden rolling pastures, grazing horses, and forest meadows filled in spring with beautiful flowers.
A journey through the Cariboo is easier now. Travellers enjoy amenities of every kind; excellent accommodations, from luxury resorts to quaint lakeside cabins, cities and towns that meet all your service needs, and fine dining and shopping. You will make many friends on your journey, from its beginning to its end. So bring your binoculars, your camera, your nature guide books and let your journey begin.
The South Cariboo is just a short breathtaking drive from Vancouver. This four-season destination offers a lifetime of memorable experiences with outdoor activities for the entire family. Discover miles of multi-use, four season trails, play a round of golf, and enjoy some of BC�s best freshwater sport fishing. Relive Gold Rush history, enjoy exceptional water recreation on countless lakes, and experience the �Wild West� on horseback at one of the regions many guest ranches and spas. Crisp, sunny winters provide the perfect setting for downhill and cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing, dog sledding, snowboarding, outdoor skating and snowshoeing.
The Central Cariboo is a land of unparalleled beauty and diversity, where the geography ranges from dense forests and pristine mountain lakes to arid cactus covered vistas, rugged canyons and open plains. It is a region bursting with culture, heritage, and history. From mountain biking, to whitewater rafting and fishing in the mountains, the Central Cariboo offers year round activities to fill your adventurous soul.
Born of the adventurous spirits of the great rush of gold in the 1850s and �60s, the North Cariboo is still an adventure seekers destination although the quest for gold has now been replaced by the quest for endless outdoor adventures.
See the best of the Cariboo, Chilcotin and BC Coast on the Discovery Coast Circle Tour. Cross to Vancouver Island from Vancouver and head north, boarding the Queen of Chilliwack in Port Hardy. Return to the mainland at Bella Coola, and enjoy the grassy plateaus, rolling meadows, picturesque canyons and high mountain peaks of the Chilcotin. The old Cariboo Wagon Road will lead you back to Vancouver through the heart of the Cariboo region. The Inside Passage Tour, the Native Heritage Tour, and the Circle Tour of Northern BC all incorporate the Cariboo Highway 97 for the journey between Prince George and Vancouver. Circle Tours in British Columbia.Location: The Cariboo is located in the Southern Interior of BC. Access to the Cariboo is via the Cariboo Highway 97, which traverses the Cariboo from Cache Creek in the south to Quesnel in the north. West of the Cariboo is the Chilcotin region of B.C.

I feel you Aretha. Without respect, a man isn't one. Lack of it will always lead to a disastrous conclusion. Me? I'd take respect over fame and money anything day of the week.
So. What exactly is the correct path to follow when there's a personal affront to your manhood? Wisdom dictates removing yourself from said situation. Easy if the assailant is a complete stranger, not so easy if you've known the individual for awhile and their viewpoint of you has changed for whatever reason. A little tougher if it's a long time friend or family member.
Yeah, you can communicate and talk about it, but since no one's budging, you're back to square one. This is why brothers don't speak to one another for 15 years a pop, or cousins only visit every other holiday. It also affects marital bliss.
So what do you do, when you are bred with a ceiling-less pride and taught to be respectful and expect it always? When the nuclear arms talk fail utterly, and war is imminent…what do you do?
It comes down to our primal responses: Fight or Flight. I'm not speaking a "physical" fight (not this time). But a fight aimed at getting the respect you deserve. Or do you take a hit to your manhood, the very core structure of who you are, and concede?
……and I ain't about to write a damn song asking for it either.
Sex & Politics
Mid-term elections are here. Got your condoms and K-Y? You'll be needing them….because politicians are about to rain down an orgy of spins, mud slinging, baby kissing, hand shaking, and leery smiling promises, only to completely renege as soon as they get in office. They should skip the $200 hundred dollar fundraiser dinners and take us right to the hotel, because you KNOW what happens next.
The campaign trail is nothing more than a glorified lap dance across America. "If you have money, I'll show you what I MIGHT do for you."
No one can say I'm not a Patriot. I've served this country proudly during my tenure in the United Sates Navy. But what the hell happened to the United States Congress? I remember how the Senate and the House of Representatives USED to be. Now, Congress is just one large brothel. Everyone is screwing and/or screwing over everyone else…literally. Let's see if I have this right: U.S. taxpayers pay their salary, Congressmen in turn, listen to our needs in earnest, then decidedly do exactly the opposite. Sounds like a bad night in Vegas if you ask me.
Oh, and if you think for one second that the parties aren't secretly working together behind our backs, you're naive. Someone explain to me why as a nation of voters, there is only a two party system…waitaminute didn't there used to be more? I wonder what happened to them? hmmm, go figure.
The President? figurehead, scapegoat, fall guy, patsy, mark, sucker….I could go on, but I think you get my meaning. He does nothing. He can suggest until he's blue in the face like the Na'Vi from Avatar. Don't believe me? ok…the military: controlled by the Joint Chiefs of Staff. the Prez doesn't make a move without them. Laws: nope. He can't pass a bill unless Congress allows it. (and of course Congress is bribed by whoever has a lot of money, they're called lobbyist.) So…what exactly is he doing again? Nothing, but misdirecting your hate. Or love , if you're into that sorta thing. You sitting down? We haven't had a real president since Kennedy. And "they" shot him for it. Oh snap, they shot Lincoln too…and a warning shot was all it took for Reagan to play along with the program.
Rape is termed as sexual intercourse with another person WITHOUT that person's consent. The way we're getting screwed, somebody needs to press charges on the House AND the Senate. It's all about money. It always was. Scratch that, no it wasn't. "WE THE PEOPLE" use to mean something. So much so that our forefathers began the constitution with it. I am going to quote something from Franklin and Jefferson to some of you unread denizens. (pick up a history book sometimes and stop reading People magazine.)
Benjamin Franklin:
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous than standing armies… if the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of currency… the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprave the people of their prosperity until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."
Thomas Jefferson:
"I am the most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit.
We are no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men."
Wow….we are soooo fucked.
Oh, one more thing: ALVIN GREENE?!? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU SOUTH CAROLINA!?!? SERIOUSLY? IT'S PAINFULLY OBVIOUS SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THAT DUDE. THE ENTIRE STATE CANNOT NOT BE THAT BLIND. DID YOU GUYS START UP INBREEDING? SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH HIM!!!!!!! GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.

Garlic crabs in a barrel
After a brief discussion about racial stereotypes with an old friend of mine, I think I'm more irritated than usual today.
It's hard enough to deal with hidden agendas and the proverbial knife in the back, but when you're forced to endure the "crabs in the barrel" attitude from your own people, it really stops you in your tracks and makes you take a hard look at society, culture and regional environments.
The Mason-Dixon line isn't the only line drawn that some southerners secretly take pride in. Economic status, has always been a line that separates us, not only from a financial standpoint but a social one as well. When you successfully make that jump into the next tax bracket, you leave behind a few scratching heads wondering "how'd he do that?" That wonderment (also known as ignorance) turns to resentment. The end result? You now have a hater on your hands.
*Hater ~ from the urban dictionary perspective: a person who cannot abide another person's success. Instead of being congratulatory, they make it point of exposing the person's flaws. The thought process isn't outright hate, it's the desire to take that person down a peg or two in the eyes of mutual peers. Mostly to distract those peers from the hater's own inabilities, flaws and other idiosyncrasies.
Now, let's add some water to that grease fire shall we? Break a few racial stereotypes, think outside of the box, or just blaze your own trail in way NOT typically known to be done by your ethnicity group and watch what happens.
As a black person, go rock climbing, or as a white person, become a rapper. White muslim? Jewish AND indigent? Depending on where you are regionally, you'll be known as "selling out", or acting something that you're not. People are creatures of habit like that. Sad, but undeniably true.
Change upsets conformity.
When they see "different" then something must be wrong. Are we really hard wired like that?
My friend Anthony is a cyclist. He's pretty good. But because cycling isn't seen as a "black" sport, he's operating outside of the known stereotype, and now he's taking heat from his peers, accusing him of being something he's not. really? Small minded people should just quit breeding. Ignorance begets ignorance.
While visiting family back home, I ran into a childhood friend. After reminiscing a bit, he pulls me to the side and asks, " Hey dawg, so how long were you locked up for?' See… for this jackass, military training and 15 years of bodybuilding equate working out in the penitentiary recreation room.
This is a very large world we live in. Get off your close-minded, prejudiced, one tracked, "I eat the same thing for breakfast everyday", asses and experience something new. Talk to someone different. Walk another route. Go visit another country. Stop wallowing in your own ignorance and for God's sake stop educating yourself via reality TV and Fox News (can people really not see their agenda?!)
FYI, we have some of the dumbest kids on the planets. Thanks failed parents! Let's have more Honey Boo Boo's and Plaxico Buress's in the world. Yeah, I went there and no that ISN'T stereotyping. that's a fact. Shanghai, Singapore and Hong Kong are making our kids look stupid. Literally. Google it. Nevermind. Here I'll do it for you: http://www.cnbc.com/id/101240945
through playing with y'all…..damn.
More Cushion for the Pushing?
Any other day, I'd bypass this subject and wouldn't think twice about it. I'm sitting at home sick as a dog, channel surfing. I see the Tyra Banks Show (re-runs obviously) about women loving men with big bellies. And then the subject was broached on Facebook. So I have to ask ladies…REALLY?
Because I heard a lot of lies. lies. lies. Maybe it was to save face, or maybe it was the fact that they no longer consider their lover's body part of the equation of love. Maybe it's all about the dollars and to hell with the body. I don't know, I'm just trying to gain a little perspective.
See…I know without a shadow of doubt that some women don't like skinny guys. I used to be just that. Being skinny as a rail, trying to talk to a dimepiece is a futile attempt no matter what your charming smile or winning looks have done for you in the past. Some women don't roll that way. They want a physical man who can handle himself and be able to bring food to the table. I get that.
But beer bellies? I'm heavily into the gym/fitness thing and I am a pretty sizable guy. At 42 years old, 232lbs, I still have no gut. Am I to believe, I'd lose out to the fat guy at the end of the bar with a bucket of Natural Light beer? To quote the fictional senator Clay Davis from HBO's the Wire, "shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit."
Muscle>Fat everyday, all day.
Guys, PLEASE do not fall into this sitcom reality TV show/facebook tomfoolery. Get your asses in the gym. Nevermind what women think….ok scratch that(what was I thinking), consider your own health for a minute. Abdominal obesity can kill you (indirectly). Not to mention affecting the lead in your "pencil". It's a sure sign that your estrogen levels are rising. And I'm hoping I don't have to break THAT one down to you.
Our abs are quite useful. When you find them again, you can email me and thank me for getting rid of your back pain and improving you sex life. Abs act as a stabilizer for your torso and a gyroscope for your….hell, if you didn't know all this time, you might be outta luck on the latter.
Ladies (just the ones that like big men), tell your man the truth, yes you want a big man for the comfort and joys of life. One that can also handle himself and protect you. A guy that can be that "blanket" you want. You don't want a guy who runs around making jokes about his "tool shed". Encourage your big man to go walking, ease him into the cardio. Before you know it, he'll be able to "see" himself again and won't have to reach blindly for it.
Am I too harsh? Probably. Am I an insensitive ass? Definitely. Listen I know there are conditions which prevent some men from exercising and/or eating right. To those guys, I'm sorry…this isn't meant for your eyes. I'm strictly referring to those 30-40 somethings who are fully ambulatory yet down kegs of beer at happy hour, talking about "yeah I'm gonna start working out again". Meanwhile their wives and girlfriends are on the Tyra Banks Show talking about, "Tyra, my big bellied man is putting it down".

We do not classify Path of Exile as an MMORPG. It is a competitive online action RPG, and has little in common with games that are typically given the MMORPG moniker.
Our realms can support arbitrarily large numbers of players. We intend to only segregate realms based on large geographic locations (realms for North America, Europe and Oceania, for example).
World areas are instanced, meaning that each party gets its own private randomly generated copy of a given area. The random templates for these areas have been designed with a low player cap in mind (potentially in the region of 4-8 players per instance), to make the areas exciting and challenging for small groups. Areas supporting player vs. player combat (PvP) have larger player caps, so that multiple teams can fight against each other.
Communal areas such as towns do not have low player cap limitations and serve as a hub for trading and finding other players to group with.
Completely free to download and play. Supported by ethical microtransactions.
Path of Exile is completely free to play - no upfront costs or monthly fees are required to enjoy 100% of the game content.
To fund the development and maintenance costs of the project, we plan to let players purchase aesthetic perks for their characters such as:
- Additional character animations (for example, taunts or PvP victory animations)
- Dyes and item skins
- Alternate spell effects
- Social pets
- Inter-realm/inter-account character transfers
- Character renaming
Randomly generated levels and items for extreme replayability
Path of Exile features randomly generated indoors and outdoors areas, a quality that ensures long term replayability. RPG fans we talked to expressed extreme disdain for having to replay identical game areas over and over, so we're confident we've made the right design choice. We know that hardcore online gamers play for extreme lengths of time, and we want to make their thousandth hour in Path of Exile as exciting as their first.
Our item system is also extremely diverse. Action RPG fans will be thrilled by the depth and nearly infinite customization of items.
Player vs. Player combat
In addition to the solo and cooperative content, Path of Exile has been designed from day one to offer a competitive PvP environment where players can display their dominance in a variety of ways. We intend to support tournaments and world PvP for both small and large teams of players.
- Completely free to download and play
- A persistent online world capable of supporting hundreds of thousands of players
- A dark and gritty game world rendered from a fixed 3D perspective
- Battle dozens of foes across a variety of unique areas
- Randomly generated levels and items for extreme replayability
- Online ranking and ladders for every game mode
- Visceral combat with dozens of combinable skills
- Battle in PVP tournaments for worldwide recognition

Jacksonville State University has an outstanding Master of Business Administration (MBA) program. Not only does the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accredit the program, but it is also listed in Princeton Review's edition of their annual Best Business Schools guidebook.
The Princeton Review, established in 1981 to assist students achieving their aspirations through education, considers JSU one of the nation's best institutions students could attend to earn their MBA. The 296 schools featured in the book are carefully selected based on their academic programs and reviewed institutional data.
According to The Best 296 Business Schools, "the blend of affordable tuition and an excellent location makes Jacksonville State University a good pick for penny-wise professionals in Northern Alabama. Despite the low cost, this public school maintains a high academic standard with its program designed to cover business fundamentals, while also addressing the international business environment and changing business technologies."
The Princeton Review queried 19,000 students from the 296 schools featured. The survey asked questions about many facets of both academics and campus life. The findings show that both past and current students enjoy being Gamecocks.
JSU respondents said their instructors treat them as well-prepared professionals and not as simple students. One student added that the "business school and all of its staff know who you are and where you are coming from; it is like a big family where you gather knowledge and meet friends." Another said, "The school's administration is always able and willing to take care of any needs you may have."
Dr. William Fielding, Dean, College of Commerce and Business Administration, is proud of the program's recognition.
"The Princeton Review only looks at AACSB accredited schools, which equals less than five percent of business programs worldwide, so this means a lot to our institution," Dr. Fielding said. "Making it to Princeton Review's The Best 296 Business Schools means that we have an excellent and professionally recognized program to people around the globe."
Dr. Fielding believes much of the program's success rests with JSU's great faculty.
"With AACSB, your faculty has to be academically and professionally qualified. Achieving such is not a matter of just having a degree; your faculty must stay current with all the latest research and teaching responsibilities. The faculty must also maintain its competence in areas such as intellectual contributions and professional development, and must continue to publish" Dr. Fielding said. "As a result, our students have a great advantage when looking for jobs since many employers tend to only recruit graduates from AACSB accredited schools."
Besides continually being listed among Princeton Review's top universities, JSU's MBA program was rated as the nation's second best in opportunities for women in 2006 and 2007.
Additionally, GetEducated.com has ranked the online MBA program at JSU eleventh out of 139 on their list of the nation's best online MBA programs.
"I believe the great rating is a result of our program's high quality and its low cost," Dr. Fielding said. "Our tuition is very reasonable compared with most other business programs around the country. Our online MBA costs $12,690, whereas the average cost of an AACSB accredited online MBA is $36,166."

VSFTPD - 553 Could not create file
I am trying to use cron and FTP to backup files regularly from my main server to a backup server. The backup server was a "bare bones" setup with no control panel or even FTP. It is running CentOS 5.3.
I installed VSFTPD which appears to be running OK and I can connect via FTP from my other server, but when I try to run my backup script (it uses mput) I get a "553 Could not create file" error.
Some relevant info:
The user I have created for this is "ftz" with home directory /home/ftz/
Running ls -l shows:
drwxrwxrwx 3 ftz ftz 4096 Dec 18 07:46 ftz
so permissions and directory ownership don't seem to be the problem.
vsftpd.conf was left in default form:
Code:# Example config file /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf # # The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file # loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable. # Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults. # # READ THIS: This example file is NOT an exhaustive list of vsftpd options. # Please read the vsftpd.conf.5 manual page to get a full idea of vsftpd's # capabilities. # # Allow anonymous FTP? (Beware - allowed by default if you comment this out). anonymous_enable=YES # # Uncomment this to allow local users to log in. local_enable=YES # # Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command. write_enable=YES # # Default umask for local users is 077. You may wish to change this to 022, # if your users expect that (022 is used by most other ftpd's) local_umask=022 # # Uncomment this to allow the anonymous FTP user to upload files. This only # has an effect if the above global write enable is activated. Also, you will # obviously need to create a directory writable by the FTP user. #anon_upload_enable=YES # # Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to be able to create # new directories. #anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES # # Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they # go into a certain directory. dirmessage_enable=YES # # The target log file can be vsftpd_log_file or xferlog_file. # This depends on setting xferlog_std_format parameter xferlog_enable=YES # # Make sure PORT transfer connections originate from port 20 (ftp-data). connect_from_port_20=YES # # If you want, you can arrange for uploaded anonymous files to be owned by # a different user.

This is disabled by # default to avoid remote users being able to cause excessive I/O on large # sites. However, some broken FTP clients such as "ncftp" and "mirror" assume # the presence of the "-R" option, so there is a strong case for enabling it. #ls_recurse_enable=YES # # When "listen" directive is enabled, vsftpd runs in standalone mode and # listens on IPv4 sockets. This directive cannot be used in conjunction # with the listen_ipv6 directive. listen=YES # # This directive enables listening on IPv6 sockets. To listen on IPv4 and IPv6 # sockets, you must run two copies of vsftpd whith two configuration files. # Make sure, that one of the listen options is commented !! #listen_ipv6=YES pam_service_name=vsftpd userlist_enable=YES tcp_wrappers=YES
Thanks again to anyone that can offer some help.

553 Permission Denied
* CuteFTP Home (All Versions)
* CuteFTP Professional (All Versions)
When attempting to upload a file to the remote FTP site, a 553 error code is encountered, resulting in an error message similar to the following example:
COMMAND:> STOR your file.ext
STATUS:> Connecting FTP data socket... 192.168.0.1:21...
553 your file.ext: Permission denied.
ERROR:> Access denied.
This error is not caused by CuteFTP. The 553 error code is coming directly from the remote FTP server. The file name is not allowed.
Many FTP servers have restrictions on file names. If your file name contains special characters, symbols, or spaces in the file name, it might be rejected by the remote FTP server. In the example above, the file name was rejected because of a space. The remote FTP site may also be rejecting a particular file based on the file type or extension.
If your file name contains special characters, symbols, or spaces in the file name, you will need to rename it before you can upload the file. Rename the file using only alpha-numeric characters and no spaces. For more information, see Best Practices for Naming Files.
Note: If you change the file name, you may also need to change links in Web pages that point to that file name as well.

Thanks for your reply Maki, but I am not using CuteFTP, and there is no weirdness in the file name - I am just transfering over a "filename.tar.gz" backup file (no spaces or unusual characters in the filename).

are you connecting to the ftp server as user ftz ?
can you create a file as user ftz in /home/ftz while logged into that server?
is selinux set to permissive mode (run sestatus) ?

Thanks for your help. In the meantime, I actually found a much better solution, using rsync over SSH, which is much more efficient, secure and easy to set up.

Best known to his contemporaries as a lecturer, Emerson delivered some 1,500 addresses over the course of his career. Because his most important ideas were worked out in his lectures, they provide the best record we have of his evolving thought--and thus are a key to our understanding of his essays and other printed works. Gathered here are lectures on American culture, literary theory and aesthetics, moral and, as Emerson called it, "intellectual" philosophy, and social and political reform. They are taken from speaking engagements in the United States and the British Isles over the period 1833-1871, during which Emerson often spent four to six months a year on the lecture circuit; lectures from the earliest years of Emerson's career (1833-1842) have been newly edited for this volume.
The volume's introduction draws on contemporary accounts to describe Emerson's idiosyncratic but utterly memorable manner of speaking. A headnote provides context to the composition and delivery of each lecture, and footnotes identify Emerson's allusions to persons, places, occasions, quotations, and books. "By examining his lectures and how they were delivered," say Bosco and Myerson, "we can look into the laboratory of Emerson's intellectual and compositional process and see his published writings gestating."

Has anyone painted kitchen counters to look like grantite |
Follow-Up Postings:
This link has someone who did it; hopefully she'll see your question and respond, but if not, there are a couple of pics you can see of her work. There is an old thread somewhere of someone who did her bathroom counter, too; I'll try to find it. |
Here is a link that might be useful: link with painted counters.
Here is another thread... I searched GW for Rustoleum, which is a product a few people have talked about. You could try emailing both the posters, if they don't see your post. |
Here is a link that might be useful: more painted counters
Here's the link to a thread where equest17 did a beautiful job painting a bathroom counter and updating the bathroom. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Avocado Bath Update
Just a note the link to the avocado bath shows them taping the sinks.........DON'T DO IT!!!!! Remove them then paint or you will get peeling and water damage. I did that once about 17 years ago now I remove the sinks. I learned the hard way. |
My kitchen counters were done with the rustoleum product over a year ago. We have had no issues and I like them so much better than the peach laminate. |
I painted the kitchen counters at DH's old bachelor pad that we're turning into a rental. I used Rustoleum's countertop paint for the base coat (not the Countertop Transformations kit with the sprinkles and stuff - their separate countertop paint) and then sponged on different shades of tan and brown. After it dried I brushed on polyacrylic but I still need to do another fine grit sand and poly to get rid of any brush strokes and further prevent against chips. It isn't perfect but it's SO much better than what was there previously (faux wood look laminate that was at least 20+ years old and in terrible shape) and it was inexpensive. A few people have been in that kitchen since and never guessed the counters were painted until I pointed out an exposed edge that I still need to get an end strip to cover. My sister is now thinking about doing the same thing to either her old laminate bath vanity top or kitchen countertop. A word of advice, though - I'd go with something other than polyacrylic since it tends to get cloudy white if you get it wet. It does dry and disappear but it still bothers me so I'll probably go over it with something like Envirotex to make it extra durable and polished. |

After watching the end credits of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, you'll immediately restart from the beginning with a massive grin. A third-person beat-em-up that's fast, stylish and unforgiving, Revengeance feels like the future of high-octane entertainment, an endlessly replayable game that blasts out of the gate and simply doesn't stop until the final strike hits home - though there's plenty of slow-mo along the way.…

No video game replicates the heaving chaos of a battlefield in such vivid terms as Koei's Dynasty Warriors games. The series is perhaps best known for thrusting the player into the midst of a throng of ancient warriors in games loosely based on the Three Kingdoms historical Chinese era. The Gundam spin-offs, however, look forward to an alternate future of giant sparring robots, duking it out on sprawling battlefields with beam swords and 2-ton rifles.…

Westfield, IN -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/19/2012 -- No, Nitric Oxide ("NO") is NOT laughing gas - that's "Nitrous Oxide"!
To get right to the point, here are some of the claims by the Xtreme NO makers:
- Builds Muscle Mass Naturally
- Fast acting muscle enhancer
- L-Arginine works naturally to bulk you up
- Works To Make You Stronger
- Increases nitric oxide (NO2) flow
- Delivers more oxygen to the muscles (More oxygen = more muscle growth)
- Simple Addition To Your Workout Routine
- Safer, easier, and more effective than other supplements
Bodybuilders, weightlifters, gym rats, athletes, and part-time couch potatoes alike have been using forms of Nitric Oxide for years, and with touted success. By working to increase the flow of oxygen to the muscles, NO provides the body with more "umph" where it is needed, when it is needed.
Xtreme NO purports to have an edge on Nitric Oxide supplementation with its advanced proprietary formula that works synergistically with L-Arginine, the nitric oxide precursor. So far, the online review buzz has been largely positive surrounding this particular product.
Click here for the Xtreme NO website and free bottle offer, or HERE for the full review by OverallHealth.org.
http://OverallHealth.org is a free-spirited site where author and chief editor Henry Rearden enjoys profiling and reviewing fresh – sometimes trendy - new products to hit the health market. Anything in the periphery of health and well-being is fair game for Henry to pull off the shelf for a look-see!

Reject Nation Poll: What Did You Think of The Incredible Hulk?
Movie News By Neil Miller on June 13, 2008 | (16) CommentsHappy glorious Friday to all of you out there in the world of movie watching. We here at FSR HQ are excited, happy and generally hung over — but that's nothing new. As for you, you are all off to your jobs, working that 9-5, anxiously awaiting that moment when you will finally be able to head back out on the town and party it up like a character from "The Hills." That is, unless you are like us and you would rather go to a movie and see a big green guy smash up the streets of New York.
That big green guy is The Incredible Hulk, and his new flick is in theaters today. And after you run out, devour your 1,200 calorie bucket of popcorn and see the damn thing, we would like to hear your thoughts in our "Sound Off" section below. As well, we have a little poll that we are running along with FirstShowing and Slashfilm, because we know how much everyone likes flashy things with numbers. Also, if you aren't too busy with that "real job", be sure to check out our Official Guide to The Hulk. It is everything you need to know before you see The Incredible Hulk.

Whitney Houston may be gone, but she will never be forgotten. However, the same can't be said for some of her singles over the years. Since The Voice appeared on the scene in the mid-'80s, radio has been kind to such classics as "I Will Always Love You", "How Will I Know", "The Greatest Love Of All" and "It's Not Right But It's Okay". But what about those Whitney tunes that came and went, never to be spun by DJs again? Following our list of Madonna's 10 Best Singles That Radio Forgot, we've now rounded up what we consider to be the cream of Houston's overlooked output. More »

Internet Explorer 10: The King Of The Web Security
When it comes to the socially engineered malware, it looks like Microsoft's Internet Explorer is the only web browser that manages to fight it well.

Or so the press says.

Intern Interview
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at AroundCampus.
It was a three- step process. Even though the second base was interesting with the virtual interview, it was not very difficult. The last step was the Skype interview with short questions and case studies. One of the questions was "What is one thing you did that contributed to your development that I can't see on your resume?" which I thought was very interesting.
